Kathy Santo's Dog Sense

Your Dog's Bucket


Listen Later

Hello everyone and welcome back to a brand-new episode of Dog Sense 🙌!

Let me ask you a question: What does your dog's bucket look like 🤔?

And no, we don't mean a literal bucket! We're talking about his emotional one.

Throughout the day, things can fill or drain a dog's emotional bucket, and that can result in your dog doing something out of character 🥴.

Just like people, a dog's emotional wellbeing impacts how they react to things. So, if your dog is suddenly cranky, ask yourself: How full is my dog's bucket ?

Sarah and I discuss this (and more!) in this week's episode, so tune in to learn more about how you can understand - and manage - your dog's emotional bucket 💪!
